"A Most Violent Year" reveals a teaser trailer, poster and release date. The video gives a sneak peek at the gripping performances of Oscar nominee Jessica Chastain and Golden Globe nominee Oscar Isaac as a couple entangled in the web of lies and deceits.
The film is set in New York City during the winter of 1981, which is statistically one of the most violent years in the city's history. It follows the lives of an immigrant and his family trying to expand their business and capitalize on opportunities as the rampant violence, decay and corruption of the day drag them in and threaten to destroy all they have built.
J. C. Chandor ("Margin Call", "All Is Lost") serves as a director. Supported by David Oyelowo, the crime drama is scheduled for limited release on December 31 before going nationwide in January 2015.
